To Ashes

So hopeless

Limbless, floating slowly into death

Your eyes struck me, lashes soaked in blood

I’ll never give in to you

It’s the closest I’ve ever come

To living fantasy for the masochist in me

So I could scream in pain for love or be empty

At night I call for you

I remember your mouth forming the hate in my veins

And I have tried to leave you

And leave it all behind

And she would start with my nails

Remove all of my teeth so I can’t disagree

My tongue is shred to pieces, these lights grow low

I've thought it all through now

And all I see is her

Could I forgive myself such sacrifice?

I would give it all away just to know

What it’s like to be held

At night I call for you

I remember your mouth forming the hate in my veins

And I have tried to leave you

And leave it all behind

And leave you all behind

Safe from your grace

I will not follow your empty notions

Right through the lacerations you pierce with your unloving stare

Straight to the bone, so cold

Open up my eyes to see the prize at cost, you murderer

And teach me the depths; how we can be so low

Nowhere to run, at night I call for you

I remember your mouth forming the hate in my veins

Nowhere to hide, and I've tried to leave you

And leave you all behind

Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide

Through a mouthful of blood I’m smiling

No place to go, it’s just what I like

Don't bother to help I’m fading

Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide

Through a mouthful of blood I’m smiling

No place to go, it’s just what I like

Don't bother to help I’m fading
